With Kristala’s full release dropping April 23, 2026, we’re officially entering the final stretch before 1.0—and that means preparing the experience to reflect the version of the game we’re truly proud to share with the world.
As of today:
The current demo is no longer available to download across platforms
Kristala’s Early Access pricing has been updated to match the full game’s launch price
Both the demo and Early Access builds represent earlier stages of development that no longer match the scope, polish, and gameplay experience coming in the full 1.0 launch. Rather than introduce new players to an outdated version of Ailur, we want their first steps into the world of Kristala to reflect the adventure as it's meant to be experienced.
At the same time, updating the Early Access price marks our transition into the final version of Kristala ahead of launch—and ensures that everyone joining the journey now is stepping into the experience as it approaches its definitive form.
The good news? A brand-new demo is on the way for PC, PS5, and Xbox, and it’s built to showcase the quality and direction you can expect from Kristala at full launch. Even better: progress made in the upcoming demo will carry over into the full release. Yep, you read that right. Game saves from the forthcoming new demo will carry over to Kristala 1.0, for all platforms, so you don't have to start over when you officially begin your full journey on April 23rd.
To everyone who supported Kristala during Early Access: THANK YOU. Your feedback has helped shaped combat improvements, stealth systems, traversal refinements, enemy AI updates, spell balancing, world design decisions, and so much more. This game wouldn't be what it is today without you.
Now we’re almost ready to share the definitive version of Kristala with all of you. April 23rd is right around the corner, and we can’t wait for you to experience this new era.
Your support helps more players discover Kristala as we prepare for release. If Kristala is already on your wishlist, thank you. If not, now’s the perfect time to add it.
